Partial success from gconftool setting "metacity" instead of compiz:
On installed Intrepid Beta, issuing gconftool before any window manager started then doing a sudo startx did get the Gnome desktop up. However, on starting Firefox, got a very long message starting: "Could not initialize the applications security component...." Firefox tried to run but couldn't access internet. Network applet had wired network greyed out. Are there other ways to use metacity instead of compiz on an installed Ubuntu Intrepid? Xubuntu & Kubuntu work O.K. CD Live, typed in the command however the Thinkpad froze up anyway. Perhaps I didn't get the command issued in time. Is there some way to stop CD live at a command prompt before Xwindows starts? Thanks much, sure looks like Compiz is implicated in the problem.
